Bio
Hailey Bunde grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska where she danced at Hart Dance Academy since the age of three. Hailey was a part of Hart’s Repertory program and taught musical theatre classes. Hailey also danced on the award-winning Lincoln Southeast Shirettes, on which they won a pom national championship in 2015. She has taken many workshops, danced in New York City, attended UDA camps, and is a two-time UDA All-American dancer.
In fall 2017, while a sophomore at TCU, Hailey stumbled upon a job listing for the front desk at a brand new studio, Studio of MoveMINT. She had been out of dance for a year and was missing the home a dance studio provides. She joined the team at Studio of MoveMINT and the rest is history. Hailey spent seven years at the front desk as manager, where she got to marry her talents of creativity, communication, and organization with her passion for dance and working with children.
While working at Studio MoveMINT, Hailey graduated magna cum laude from TCU with her B.S. in Strategic Communication and minors in writing and graphic design in 2020. In May 2024, she began a new chapter as a Production Artist for LanCarte Commercial Real Estate, but she still teaches and loves to sub every chance she can get! In her free time, Hailey enjoys visiting her family and friends in Nebraska, watching sports, reading and writing, needlepointing, and hanging out with her two cats, Jimmy and Rosie.
For fun!
